jaw-dropping moment from week 15, putting a pin in whatever
the hell that was. Okay? All right we saw in Las Vegas,
okay? And in that one beyond that one
biggest draw dropping moment that you saw from week 15.
Okay. Alright, so we're taking that out. I had what I would
agree with that. I mean that's like
we'll talk about this job was nothing ever. I mean it's up
there. You're exactly right, you're exactly right gosh.
Out of like, all right, do I have to pick out of the ones?
We got right there or I can't go anywhere. Okay. Okay.
Anything any, I didn't made your jaw literally dropped,
I think literally, gosh, there was a lot of good ones. I think
the biggest one to me was
the Buccaneers turning the ball over five State straight series
and a game where you're going
like man Bangles can't do much. They can't they're struggling,
you know, they're a little off here
Brady's kind of picking them apart all
All the first half. They got all the right plays,
then it's the bot, fake punt.
Oh man. Whoa, why would they even do that?
Then it's hey that this is, this is the fumble exchange.
After Brady Stone, an interception
and fumbled in the pocket,
fumbled exchange Devore, net. And then this
not in, you know,
losing track of who's around them in the pocket and the ball
gets knocked in the air for another interception to me that
was like, the draw dropping moment.
Like, I was shocked, by the way, they were controlling
the game and then
34 unanswered by The Bangles and I don't even know if it was
that impressive. It was more bucks, just messing crap up.
I that that one was a jaw-dropper.
Let me just say this, and I understand
completely the irony of how it's going to compare with what
my biggest draw, dropping moment was. Yeah, but you saw
that fake punt on fourth and one the Vikings in the first
half of Saturday's game rain, effect punt on fourth
and one. Why are you running a fake punt on fourth? And one,
I guess they really don't see it coming. I mean, forth. I want
just leave your offense out there. Surely you have a play,
in your normal offense
that you are more confident. Can gain
36 inches of Real Estate.
State, then the fake punt, which is people doing things,
they don't ordinarily. Do and why are you burning off your
fake Punk there?
Like once you play your fake punt card, it's not coming back
around anytime soon. Why piss it away in that moment? And we
saw it fail for the Vikings. We saw it, fail it right? 17-3
fourth and one and you run
a fake punt I guess nobody really does expect it. Because
who would be dumb enough to do it? Then anyway for me it was
the sequence. Late in the Vikings called scam because
I was on a plane and I missed the come back, if it's 33, nothing
when we went wheels up and as soon as we landed and I got
Silver Service again, it was 36 all and that, that was a, that
was a knowledge Romper of the what in the hell is going on.
But, you know, I watched the second half Sunday morning,
and I never really felt like the Avalanche is coming.
I never really felt like, oh, the Vikings are inevitably going to
win this. It came down to
the Colts, fourth, and one I'm
sending rickety, tinman scarecrow, I don't know which
character he would be from The Wizard of Oz. He's skinny, he's
tall. He's older as quarterbacks go and they send
him into the middle of the line of scrimmage with a
quarterback sneak and he doesn't even take the ball off his hip.
So the Vikings get it back and then on the very next play,
there goes down, even cook. Yeah, I I wouldn't have
thought. If I was watching that live I wouldn't have thought
the ice
2:19 left. The Vikings need a touchdown, they're 65 yards away.
And this is, you know, it's going to be a methodical drive
and maybe going out of convert a fourth down here. They're,
they're going to need adjusting Jefferson. Catch. No little
screen passed down cook. There it goes. Couple of blocks off
he goes. Are you kidding me?
Are you kidding me? And then I don't know what 72 is doing
down. It carry almost tackled, his own man, are you kidding
me? And then the two point conversion off. We go to
overtime in the Vikings win. Unbelievable. It wasn't until
that moment though, that I
thought it was real.
And yeah, Dalvin cook shot out of a Anan and he's Loose as
Paul Allen would say unbelievable. Yeah, it they
erase the come back with that play. It was and what have
where do you stand with the
should they have gone for it on fourth and one there and run
the quarterback sneak or should they have kicked the field
oval, right? It feels fake punt,
fake punt. Now, kick the field goal.
He did the guy just made one.
I'm gonna get it's indoors
and Chase McLaughlin and hit five field goals on the day.
And he had made one from about the same distance
that pick
my prized outside. I was surprised as well and you know,
even with that last play to like the quarterback sneak if
we could show that again,
I mean again it was crazy. Impressive performance, there's
no doubt
the refereeing of the game was
is questionable as any game. I can never remember watching and
football with some of the personal fouls of her called in
the Colts. When you guys were down by four touchdowns, it was
like, okay so here we go. We're going to try to even the game
up but on this play here too.
Okay, the this play here, too, it's the
Akos whistle I've ever seen in a quarterback sneak ever.
I mean, last week, I mean, when do you stop a guy's forward
progress? I don't know. I think that's what I'm all. I'm just
no bike. That's where I know. I don't know because I never see
them. Stop at that
quick. Last night I saw play with Aaron Jones,
where his forward progress was stopped for 45 seconds and they
let it go. And then Jalen Ramsey strip the ball out. Like
that's where I don't know
what to expect on a weekly basis and it's very hard. And
I saw three or four quarterback sneaks on Sunday, The same
thing happened, and they let it go and let it go and then
the offense pushed him and he got it and
they counted those yards.
So, that's was right. To let me say this, let me say this, when
you call a quarterback sneak, you assume all risks associated
with it including chur quick, whistle long whistle.
No ability to have an effective replay review of The Spot. None
whatsoever, right. When you decide to do the Rugby scrum
and shove your quarter back into that mass of humanity,
there is no way, there's going to be a shot. That is clearly
an obvious. SLI better than
the spot that is arbitrarily selected
by the officials who come walking in acting like they've,
they've sliced it down to the nanometer as to where the ball
is. You except that when you do a quarterback sneak? So don't
do a quarterback. Sneak
with a 37 year, old quarterback,
who feels older than that?
Who's about 20 pounds? Under the weight, he should be at.
What are you doing? They didn't even do the get behind and not
letting them push them out. Why I know I remember when you were
you were
you were making fun of Kirk Cousins when they tried that at
the Go Lana and he's more time doing squats. I don't I don't
think Matt Ryan's ever done a squat in his life. Why is he
the one doing that? So I just it's just a bad, bad decision,
bad play call.
